I’d like to give you a gift to start 2025. It’s something that has helped me quite a bit. It might help you.
You can download the simple day planner that I personally use. No email required. No upsells. No follow-on emails. No strings attached. Just download it. I won’t know. That’s the direct link.
Personal time prioritization has revolutionized my day and life. I’ve written quite a bit about it in this space.
When I’m on my game (I’m not always), I start my day purposefully, and one of the things I do is write out my tasks for the day before I start to work. I take these tasks and categorize them as:
- The single #1 priority (if all goes to hell, I’ll at least make progress on this — I might not finish)
- The focus tasks (other tasks that require focused blocks of time — I might not get these done today)
- Backlog (the rest of the stuff — including stuff that I know won’t get done today but I can’t lose track of)
If you need more depth on this, here it is.
Maybe the key to getting on track in the new year is first to recognize that you control your time. Then, step up to that personal leadership role.
This has helped me. It might help you.
